Most of these books are preserving what is left of the color film shot 30-60+ years ago. This is so that we can remember what colors the trains of another era were. Then we start another flame war to figure out what brand of paint matches the color in the book. The problem is trying to match the color chemistry of ink and film and paint.

That looks fasinating. It also says they specialize in all color photo books so it doesn not look like they'll be doing and black and white books. [:(]

The best bet for black and white photo books would be O. Winston Link's books "The Last Steam Railroad in America." [:)]
